Released Pokémon: Difference between revisions

In [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!|Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]], releasing Pokémon is also called transferring, like in Pokémon GO. A player can transfer up to 30 Pokémon at once to [[Professor Oak]], who will award one stat-specific candy (of varying sizes) for each Pokémon transferred, each candy's stat corresponding to what that Pokémon may yield if caught in the wild. For every 50 Pokémon of a common species the player transfers, Professor Oak will award a candy specific to that Pokémon's species. After every transfer, Professor Oak will tell the player the total number of Pokémon he or she has sent over.

In [[Pokémon GO]], the player can choose to '''transfer''' a Pokémon to [[Professor Willow]]. Pokémon transferred to Professor Willow cannot be taken back, equivalent to releasing the Pokémon in the core series games. When a Pokémon is transferred to the professor, the player will also receive a [[candy]] for that Pokémon's species.

Transferring Pokémon to a [[Nintendo Switch]] title has basically the same effect on a player's account as transferring to Willow, except 100 [[Trainer level|XP]] is also awarded on top of candy for every transaction.
